Phase  switch:  This  switch  inverts  the  polarity  of  the  guitar’s  output;  in  certain  conditions,  this  can  improve  the  overall  sound  and  assist  in  reducing  

feedback.  There  is  no  default  setting—try  both  and  see  which  gives  you  the  best  tone.  

 

Unplugging  the  guitar  when  not  in  use:  The  guitar’s  electronics  are  automatically  activated  whenever  a  ¼”  instrument  cable  is  plugged  into  the  

output  jack.  To  extend  battery  life,  unplug  the  guitar  when  you  are  not  using  the  output.  

 

Changing  the  battery:  When  the  “BATT  LO”  indicator  LED  is  lit,  it’s  time  to  replace  the  batteries  in  your  AG-­‐105EQ.  The  battery  pouch  is  located  

inside  the  body  of  the  guitar,  just  below  the  neck  joint,  attached  by  a  strip  of  hook-­‐and-­‐loop  fastener.  To  gain  access  to  the  battery  pouch,  loosen  

the  three  bass  stings:  E(6),  A(5),  and  D(4).  Don’t  worry  if  the  ball  ends  come  out  of  the  string  sleds;  the  string  clamps  will  keep  the  strings  attached  

to  the  guitar.  

   

Once  the  strings  are  loosened,  reach  inside  and  pull  the  battery  pouch  away  from  its  hook-­‐and-­‐loop  fastener  and  out  of  the  sound  hole,  being  

careful  not  to  tug  on  the  attached  wires.  

 

Open  the  pouch,  carefully  remove  the  battery  compartment,  and  replace  the  2  x  AAA  batteries.  Test  the  tuner  before  moving  on.  If  the  tuner  is  not  
working,  try  a  new  set  of  batteries.  If  it  still  doesn’t  work,  refer  to  our  website  at  www.travelerguitar.com/support  for  further  assistance.    

 

If  the  tuner  is  working  properly,  replace  the  battery  compartment  in  the  pouch  and  close  it  securely.  Then,  re-­‐attach  the  pouch  to  its  hook-­‐and-­‐loop  

fastener  inside  the  body,  making  sure  it  is  secure,  then  tighten  the  strings  back  up  to  pitch.  

 

Cleaning,  storage,  and  general  care:    

 

When  not  in  use,  your  Traveler  Guitar  should  be  stored  in  its  included  gig  bag  to  protect  it  from  exposure  to  the  elements.    

 

Periodic  cleaning  and  polishing  will  help  protect  your  Traveler  Guitar.  Use  a  polish  formulated  for  musical  instruments  and  apply  it  according  to  the  

polish  directions—or,  you  can  wipe  the  guitar  down  with  a  clean,  damp  cloth  followed  quickly  by  a  clean,  dry  cloth.  To  clean  the  fingerboard,  you  

can  use  extra-­‐fine  steel  wool  to  rub  up  and  down  the  length  of  the  fingerboard  over  the  top  of  the  frets.  Never  use  furniture  polish  on  the  guitar,  as  

you  may  damage  the  surface.  

 

Protect  your  guitar  from  extreme  temperatures  and  changes  in  humidity.  Never  leave  your  Traveler  Guitar  in  a  closed  vehicle  or  any  other  location  

where  the  guitar  will  be  exposed  to  extreme  heat.  If  you  live  in  a  very  dry  climate,  you  may  want  to  use  a  guitar  humidifier.  

We  recommend  leaving  complicated  operations  (such  as  truss  rod  adjustments)  to  a  trained  guitar  technician.  Improper  truss-­‐rod  adjustments  may  

damage  your  guitar  and  void  your  warranty.
